Popular hike in the Upper Bavarian Forest Nature Park, Bavaria. From the tourist information office, hike downhill in the direction of Walching (Iglhaut bakery) and past the Pfeiffer sports shop. After the tavern disco, turn left and walk to the Hussite Island (hiking board, seating area). Now turn left and cross the bridge in the direction of Lamberg. After the last house on Lambergerstrasse, turn left, pass the old sports field and the village of Atzlern. Immediately after the Harrer inn, turn right along the dirt road and hike to just before the village of Krottenhof. Now keep to the right. On a small hill you can enjoy a beautiful panoramic view. After a bench (here you can also take the shortcut via Hasleth to Neukirchen), keep to the left, hike through a small forest, cross the Schicherbach and soon after you have reached the Schicherhof (a hamlet with 3 farms). You walk past the farms to the old Waldlerhaus of the Neumeier family. Here you continue to the left on dirt roads, through a hollow lane (unfortunately there are only very few left) and arrive in Lamberg. At the end of Lamberg keep left and come back to Schicherbach via a meadow path, which you cross again. Now comes the tar road and you go back to Neukirchen b.Hl.Blut. Alternatively, from Lamberg you can also take the road back to Neukirchen b.Hl.Blut. Highlights of the hike: - Neukirchen at the Holy Blood - Hohlgasse near Lamberg - extensive fields - Schicherhof
